If you’re a Bob’s Burgers fan, you’re probably someone who’d go to Bob’s Burgers for cheap burgers, cheaper fries, and cheapest conversations with Teddy. That’s because, according to the Wrap, the Fox animated series has the poorest viewers of any current show on the Big Four. But at least we have our integrity, i.e. we don’t watch Nashville.

The median Modern Family viewer in the 18-49 demographic rakes in $81,100 annually, according to Nielsen data. Bob’s Burgers watchers in the demo, on the other hand, earn around $48,000 per year.

Neither are particularly rich or poor — but the ratings company carefully tracks even minor differences in wealth because advertisers want to wring out as much as they can from the people who watch their shows.

TheWrap found the gap between ABC’s Modern Family and Fox’s Bob’s Burgers by looking at Nielsen’s average median income of primetime viewers this season for the four biggest broadcast networks — not including sports, specials, or awards ceremonies. (Via)

I will admit that I watch Bob’s Burgers because it affirms my life situation with my family. My kids, who watch it with me at times, will remark, “Dad, you are Bob!” My son is a near carbon copy of Gene. It’s…unsettling. Also entertaining.

In all honesty, Bob’s Burgers isn’t going out of its way to improve in the ratings. I like the show and it has moments of genius, but mostly it’s a bunch of loose dialog where people argue with each other over random things that don’t exist. And they do it in the most annoying voices possible. Half the characters sound like they’re talking with spit in their mouths like a stuck up 12 year old girl with braces. So a lot of the show is wasted space built around what would fit better as a 15 minute short on Adult Swim.

I’ve made numerous attempts to get into this show, but its just not happening. I think its supposed to be a comedy, but I’ve never found anything funny. All of the ads/bumpers they show for this look like they’re trying to be, but just aren’t.

No the laugh track is annoying and he premise got thin. I do like family guy and he Simpsons and I’m sad jeselnik got canceled. I don’t like the above mentioned shows because they all come off as fart sniffing high minded pretentious a-hole. I mean I like Chevy and I like childish Gambino and nick offerman but the shows themselves are awful

The show is great. The opening credits with the name of a new pest control van and a new business next to the restaurant alone are enough to make me laugh. Not to mention the burger of the day name. What I’m trying to say is that this my favorite half hour of television every week.

I think these lists are made up so they know what kinda fast food commercials to run during the show. Those richies over at Modern Family get the fancy Carl’s Jr ads, while we po’ folks hanging with Bob’s get McD’s and that annoying Wendy’s chick.
